[Include a brief summary of the paper you are reanalyzing data from (e.g., the overall objective of the paper, the types of data collected and how sampling was done, what the main results were) and lay out what you intend to replicate.]
[Include a view of the first few lines of the dataset plus any exploratory data analysis - e.g., overview of descriptive statistics included in the paper, plots, etc.]

[Be sure to thoroughly explain what replications you are doing and comment your code so that it is easy for a reader to understand. Include in this section relevant tables/figures/values from the original paper for comparison to what you accomplished with your replication. Note that I want you to do the bulk of any exposition using text and markdown syntax outside of code blocks. That is, your document should not just be one big code block with R style comments but rather a nicely formatted report with code separated from exposition, interpretation, and dicussion.]
Narrative section that overviews how successful were you at replicating the analyses and visualizations in the study.
1. What problems did you encounter?
2. Why might you have encountered those problems?
3. What details were lacking from the original study’s methods that might have hampered your ability to replicate the authors’ results?
